Can I pass smog with a 2017+ header on my 2013?
 
I think the answer might be a resounding yes, but I just wanted to make sure since California is pretty crazy with smog regulations.

TIA

I don't see why not. It will look like a factory header if they look at it. Is the cat still intact? If so, I don't see why it wouldn't pass a sniffer.

Not sure if its technically legal but I doubt any tech would notice since it's still OEM and looks the part.

No. I have a JDL and tune And I need to go back to stock to get smogged next time

California doesn't even use the sniffer anymore. It's plug and play baby. You pass visual and all monitors run with no codes, you're good to go.

Aftermarket is different than an OEM catted header. Even if its catted aftermarket

It is not legal, but it will pass visual unless it has a year stamp on it.
